AshfieldRam Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Come across this song online ( and on iTunes aswell) We will follow you - Syndrome (Google it) It's apparently an old terrace chant or something from the baseball ground? Asked the old man about it and he can't remember without hearing it so I thought I'd ask on here. Very much like a marching on together chant but a derby version, with a few tweaks could make a good song for nowadays. I believe the lyrics are " through the thick and the thin, we will never give in. We will will follow the great white and blue. We will beat any team because we are supreme, derby county we will follow you" It goes on but does anybody know this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Never heard it - or at least I can't remember it from the early 1970's There were a lot of songs released by various people about Derby - all of them bloody awful. Edit: I see it was from 1983. Bloody hell, just getting ready for the third division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Someone posted about this around two years ago - it might have been the writer's son. I spent my hard earned pocket money on it at the time - and drove my Mum scatty playing it. I'd guess that it came out about 1978. from memory Derby County, we're behind you and we're strong Derby County, we'll soon find you Back in the First Division, Where you belong Sadly that's dated a little...but I still like the tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 It's on the Rams Songs (Cherry Red Records) CD that I have, or had, somewhere but can't find. Yeah, Ashford Rams' post, see that, that CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I might also point out the the song ラムシープ by Japanese band つしまみれ (tsushimamire) translates as Ramsheep so let's all give this a go, yeah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissT Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Hi Sorry this post is a few months old but I've just been looking for this song and my search brought me here. I've just registered an account as I'm hoping you can help. My dad played bass and sang some of the vocals on this song when he was in the band "Syndrome". I've just told him that it's still online (I found it on spotify) and he laughed as they never expected it to still be around. He also said that the cheers in the background were recorded at a really important match in Derby's history around that time and was wondering if anyone could work out what match it was? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Derbyshire Ram Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I'm sat here cringing, I started watching Derby in the early 80's but I don't remember singing that one. or my mind won't let me remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I too bought the single from the Ramtique and must have it somewhere. Terrible, terrible song. As I recall it was never once sung on the terraces, either before or after the "release" - just a really dreadful piece of song writing. Sorry MissT!
